We Have 3 Winners!

I enjoy sharing my breakfast teatime each day with my sister when we talk on the phone every morning. 

 We share our day's plans with each other......along with a lot of other stuff.  Sisters tell each other everything, don't ya know?

Rather than go online to the Random Number Generator, I asked my sister to choose the Winners of my Giveaway by picking 3 numbers.

AND ........the winners are:

Lime Green Quilt Squares - Jennifer from Hoodies and Flip Flops blog

Sewing Motif Fat Quarters - Lisa from Life Full of Laughter blog

Fall Fabric Appliques - Barefoot T from Quilts By Thunder blog 

Congratulations GO out to all three of you.  Please send me your names and addresses so I can get your prizes in the mail. 

 Hope ya'll had fun with this.



Thanks for visiting.

Great Fun to meet Barb from Bejeweled Quilts Blog

You meet the nicest people when blogging!    My sister and I had a great opportunity to meet Barbara from Pago-Pago American Samoa this week 'cause she was in San Antonio for a few days.  We met at the Red Robin near Six Flags Fiesta Texas and had such a wonderful time.   She is such fun and pretty too!   She brought us the cutest little bags she made with beautiful tropical fabrics tucked inside.   Thanks, Barb.  Her blog is http://bejeweledquiltsbybarb.blogspot.com/   and if you don't follow her, you are really missing out.  

We thought it would be fun to take her fabric shopping, so off we went to Jo-Ann's Super Center to spend some money.  

All the pretty silk flowers made a great background for picture taking.  Barb's on the left and my sister, Jerre, on the right. 

What a wonderful time we had!  And all thanks to blogging! 

SEWING TWEET Wall Hanging

I love these "Tweet" designs that I am buying from Embroidery Library every week. They are now selling a different theme "Tweet" every week; sports, gardening, lifting weights, the beach....etc. Naturally this sewing one is my favorite and I have made a few of them. Can you see the top bird with the thimble for a hat? Sorry, my picture is not a close up!

This one I finished into a simple little wallhanging for my sister's Birthday and mailed it off to her today! Hope she doesn't click on my blog for a couple days, and hope she likes it.

I used a sewing motif fabric for the border and the backing, and did a "flip & turn" knife edge instead of binding it.

For any of you who have embroidery machines, you might want to go take a look at Embroidery Libary's designs. They are reasonably priced and always stitch out so great!

Thanks for visiting.

DISAPPEARING PURSE/BAG

This new purse/bag has mysteriously disappeared to my sister's house!

When I showed it to her the other day, she told me it needed a BIG funky button on the tab closure. I told her...."well buy the button...and it's yours." You can't see it in the picture, but it has 2 side pockets just big enough for cell phone & sunglasses.

She bought this button (which she just pinned on for the pictures) and now the purse is gone......and all I have are these stupid pictures! Ah! the LOVE of sisters! (just in case you think this is over...it's not...she has to make me a new funky fabric patchwork blouse in exchange for this bag!)

TOO MANY PROJECTS!

I've been working all day on my projects, as I promised myself. Here's a few pictures of my progress.

Here's some of the scarves I have been making for the gals in my family who live in the cold/snow part of the country. The pale green one is for my youngest grand daughter, so it's narrower & will be faster to make.....yippee!! My 2 sisters grabbed up 2 of them, so have been delayed in getting these finished and mailed to family.

Another flannel raggy quilt ready to be clipped. Actually, I have made 2 of them...same size, same colors. Will soon be selling them in my Ebay store:

The picture on the right is another patchwork tote that's not quite finished, but it's getting done this weekend, for sure!

TA DA!!
